To be clear, I don't hate socialism. I have respect for its ideals. Also, I like the pictures of unicorns my 8 year old daughter draws. I admire her imagination.

It's progressivism that I hate because of gutless outstanding citizens like you who espouse its virtues while wiping your ass with them at the same time and then demanding that the people who tolerate your absurdity and give you a banner of protection to spew it on our children are the problem. And you know what? Maybe we are. You're still teaching kids - Americans are still letting that happen.

"We must stop corporations from trampling on the rights of humans - except for the people who I disagree with. We should let corporations trample all over them." /Progressives

Progressivism is a husk of an ideology, stolen from classical liberalism and dressed up to look like humanitarianism, when all it really is is a puppet on the hand of the elites who use it to animate the people against the people.

Just in time for midterms, Facebook has removed 559 pages and 251 accounts they claim have been spreading misinformation and spam. Several of the pages however - some with millions of followers, were pro-Trump conservatives who had spent years cultivating their followings.

Facebook has unpublished our page

After 5 years of building fans Facebook has officially unpublished our page (3.1 million fans) so we can't post on it anymore. This is truly an outrage and we are devastated. We will do everything we can to recover our page and fight back. pic.twitter.com/H3AmHTT8Qo

I’ve been memory holed from FaceBook! 350k followers poof gone! There is a dangerous precedent being set here where the big tech companies have appointed themselves as the gate keepers of political thought and opinion! Retweet this if you care about free-speech! #FreeDickspic.twitter.com/LsnZvaJyOL

Our @facebook page with over 2.1 million followers has been unpublished, along with over 800 other pages and accounts. The purge of alt-media is upon us. pic.twitter.com/6Q2oswVpBI

Facebook claims that "domestic actors" have been creating "fake pages and accounts to attract people with shocking political news," reports Bloomberg.

"The people behind the activity also post the same clickbait posts in dozens of Facebook Groups, often hundreds of times in a short period, to drum up traffic for their websites," Facebook said in a Thursday blog post. "And they often use their fake accounts to generate fake likes and shares. This artificially inflates engagement for their inauthentic pages and the posts they share, misleading people about their popularity and improving their ranking in news feed."

Some pages Facebook removed had large followings of real and fake accounts. Nation in Distress, a conservative meme page, was followed by more than 3 million people, according to the Internet Archive, which stores historical versions of websites and other online content. -Bloomberg

Facebook has removed "559 Pages and 251 accounts" in the US "that have consistently broken our rules against spam and coordinated inauthentic behavior." They include:

That said, not all of the accounts with large followings were conservative; Reverb Press, for example, had over 700,000 followers and constantly attacked President Trump and Republicans, who they referred to as "cheating scumbags."

A third left-leaning page, Reasonable People Unite, posted a screen shot of a Twitter user who said, “Somewhere in America, a teenage girl is listening to her parents defend Brett Kavanaugh and she is thinking to herself, if something like that happens to me, I have nowhere to go." -WaPo

Well, you know, you could just avoid Google, and avoid Facebook, and avoid all the other evil tech that has you wetting your pants.

Unless you just can't, that is.....

I do avoid them, but your tacit support of corporate censorship and contempt for the spirit and value of free speech is noted.

You realize the first amendment was specifically about political speech don't you? IT's the core foundation of a free society. To not value free speech is to not value a free society.

I do not understand how any liberal is not bothered by this. God, you guys used to be the ones who defended free speech, and now that censors are shutting down political opposition you're like "yeah, that's cool'

Nice convictions. What DO you value? I mean besides corporate censorship. Glad to see you finally value the rights of corporations, but only when they abuse them with the intent on altering political discourse and dictating policy.

You should read about what fascism was in Italy dude. You seem like a real fan of it.
